This is a list of the supported sites, and their available features. This information is only for users who want more customisation, and is irrelevant for the majority of users. The symbols in brackets are the variables used for formatting the "Plain text" save as option.
"Now Playing" (%s%), "Time Started" (%t%) and "URL" (%u%) variables are fully supported by every site. The magnifying glass icon denotes sites which don't display the artist and title information seperately, for these sites UNP will try to split the information into Artist and Title, but accuracy can't be guaranteed.
*: Soundcloud has 5 different page layouts. For best results use the detailed artist, track or set view, and don't navigate away; otherwise UNP may only be able to pick up Artist, Track and URL.
Full list of Variables
%s% : Now Playing data %a% : Artist %e% : Title %b% : Album %d% : Total Duration %t% : Time started (24hr) %u% : URL of page %n% : New line
Plain Text Format Examples
If you listen to GrooveShark, and your plain text format is set to:
%a% - %e% (%b%) [%d%]
The output will be:
Artist - Title (Album) [Duration]
About
"Untamed Now Playing" is a Chrome extension which parses the song title and artist from popular online radio/music sites, and writes it to a file on your hard drive. Programs such as Xsplit or OBS can then read the file and display it on an overlay, allowing viewers to easily see what song is currently being played. Coded by Untamed.
Support for more sites will be added over time. If you have a suggestion for a site, please contact me.
Limitations
At the moment, now playing data is only saved when the song intially plays and is only updated when the next song starts playing. Thus if you stop playing music, the output file will still contain the last song played.
Chrome limits what directories can be saved to, if you run into problems, try saving to a subdirectory of your profile (C:\Users\USERNAME* or C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME*).
